This paper provides an overview of the R & D Supporting Program by KAIARI (Korea Association of Industry, Academy, and Research Institute) for Korean Small and Medium Size Companies through University-Industry Cooperation. The background of establishing the KAIARI 18 years ago is introduced along with the specific programs and more detailed achievements of the R & D supporting programs. The Korean small and medium size companies, which consist of 99.9% among the number of companies in Korea, generally lack of the high level of engineers and the expensive test and measurement equipments. The effective cooperative system developing the R & D products and systems between university and industry becomes the hot issue and an essential element to maximize the international competitiveness in each nation. It is now generally understood as the best way to compensate the weakness of the industry and/or the academy by the strength of the academy or/and the industry. The current R & D supporting programs of KAIARI are (1) Cooperative Research & Development Project, (2) Project of Setting Up New Research Institute of Company, and (3) Project of Utilizing Expensive R & D Equipments at University. The contents and the outputs of those three projects are introduced and the R & D supporting programs of KAIARI have been also evaluated as one of the successful programs among various governmental R & D programs.
